A CURIOUS AFFECTION.

The Berlin Medical Society has received re-
port BY Mons. Levin, describing an affection that
seems to be peculiar to.wOrkers in silver. 1t ap-
pears in the form of round oval spots of blush,
hue on the skin, which may reachl the size of a
fve-cent nickel. They are generally on the back
of the left hand and can only be accounted for BY
supposing that the silver in solution falls upon
scratches, where the body fluids give rise to some
chemical change producing the peculiar color.

THE LEPROsY SCARE.

There seems to be goo reason for be-
lieying that form of leproSy actually
exists in certain portions of the state.
Though not the terrible disease which
has decimated the population of the
Hawaiian islands, it Is nevertheless
allied to it. and should receive as care
full attention from the authOri ties. The
disease exists exclusively among those
Scandinavian immigrants who, at home,
were accustomed to an unyarying fish
diet. and has not yet been observed
among those of that race who were born
i'll this country.
Although it is claimed that the disease
in the form existing in Minnesota is not
contagious. there is no absolute proof
of that fact. In view, therefore, of the
doubt which exists in the matter. the
apathy of the state board of health re-
garding the disease is difficult to eX-
plain. In other countries where leprOSy
exists il is regarded as distinctly con-
taglOuS, and the moment the disease ap-
pears the unfortunate victim is at once
isolated from the rest of the community.
The same precautiOn should be Oh
served here. Even ii the form of lep-
rosy reported from several Scandina-
Wan settlements is thought to be UNI
communicable, the sufferers should be
gathered in some place where they can
receive the medical attention which now
in many cases they find it impossible to
secure. If the state thinks it necessary
to establish institutions where the men-
tally diseased should be cared for, it
should be equally ready to provide a
refuge for those who are physically dis
eased and unable to care for themselves.
And particularly should this be the
case when it is not at all certain that
the disease is not contagious or infec-
t.Ous. The lepers should receive all
possible attention without delay.

FAULTY LAND LAWS.

The conviction has become general in
the Northwest among those familiar
with the subject that there are few
laws more injurious to the government :
interest and to the peoples interest,"
the terms are synOnym0uS-.han those
which permit the occupancy of govern
ment land under the timber culture and
desert land laws.
These two laws. by the provisions of
which large tracts of public land could
he taken up under the promise of plant
ing certain number of trees in the one
case. and on affidavit in the other that
the land was practically barren without
irrigation. have been abused from their
passage. They have simply enabled
spectators to acquire dishonesty large
holdings of valuable public lands for a
trifle-a virtual dcfrauding of the honest
settler.
Nor has the presumption law been
much less abused. For two settlers
who have acquired public land honestly
under its provisions, there have been
ten who have done so dishonesty. The
homestead law. emitting every actual
settler of legal age to 100 acres Of good
land. is the only one of the various land
laws which has really accOmpli shed the
purpose for which it was enacted. Rec
ognizing these facts, the Democratic
house at the last session Of congress
passed a bill repeating all but the home
stead law. 1t was refused passage iii
the Republican senate, however, and
failed to become a law.
The same bill will be introduced in
the present congress. and the Western
representatives should. regardless OF
politics, unite in securing its passage.
With the grand record of having saved
$4,000, 600 acres of public lands from the
grasp of the land robbers. the Demo
cratic party should insist upon the good
work being kept up.

AN EDITORIAL CANDIDATE.

Editor GiNTY. of Chippewa Falls,
Wis. has an ambition which he is fondiy
cheTiSbing. It is nothing less than a de-
sire to succeed Uncle JERRY RISK as
governor of Wisconsin. Editor GINTY
is a bluff and hearty gentleman, not I'M
like the present governor in many re-
Spects: but he will, in all probability,
never see the consummation of his
hopes.
In the first place. our esteemed con-
temporary, though IA good man, bar
ring his political faith. hasn't an organ
loud enough TO sound his praises. In
the second place, Uncle JERRY wants it
again. and, having control of the Re
publican machinery, is likely to get the
nomination. no matter who is his conf
petitOr. And in the third place. there is
a very excellent prospect, indeed, that
the people of Wisconsin will display eX-
cellent common sense by electing a
Democrat.
SO. all things considered. il looks very
much as though Editor GINTY, who has
our coincidence in advance. will be
obliged to remain in the Seclusion which
his sanctum grants for some time 10
come.

CINCINNATI, Dec. THE board of
arbitration met to-day and decided to
grant protection to the minor leagues,
each club to pay for the same $3.50,
including, also, the right to re-

The board elected John 1. Rogers, of
Philadelphia, president, and Charles
Byrne, of Brooklyn, secretary. 1t was
recommended that the league and
American association hold their annual
meetings in the same city in December
of each year, selecting st. Louis for
1888. The schedule meeting will be
held in March. The 50-cent admission
was adOpted.

SiIyer-Plating Dead Bodies.
London Figaro.

4
Some two years ago plan was openly
suggested and discussed which con-
sisted in inclosing the bodies of our
dead fellOw-citiZenS in cement, thus
forming them into blocks, which when
duly hardened would serve to construct
breakwaterS or forts, or any other build
ing of large dimensions. This plan did
not receive public encouragement, how
ever. and has not been heard of since.
But now German doctor has diScOy-
cred way OF electrO-plating our de
ceased friends and relatives, thus form
ing them into what are virtually silver
plated mummieS. The corpse having
been duly prepared has first to be
SprInkled with plumbagO and then sus-
pended III the elcctrOplating solution in
the usual way, the precipitation being
caused by electricity.
1t is possible. | hear, to cover a dead
body with such a very thin film of silver
as to leave the expression of the face
unaffected so far as its eXpressiveneSS
goes, OF the deposit can be increased at
will until corpse is turned into what is
virtually Silver-plated statue. EX-
periments have actually been made in
this direction, and the feasibility of the
plan demonstrated clearly; so that it is
quite possible Undl Ill ages 10 cOHle Jne
rich parvenu, instead of buying set of
painted ancestors in Wardour street,
will be able to provide himself with a
choice and costly selection of electro
plated ''fOrebearS'' for his ancestral
halls. But there is one evident objection
to this notion of electrO-plating our
dead, viz, that corpses would then be
turned into portable property. which
would inevitably tempt the burglar. In
fact, it would end in one having to send
ones ancestors TONES bankers for safe
custody along with the plate and the
jewel case.

Eastern centers of finance because Gus
toners are not numerous enough to
take it all. even at the reasonable rate
of AZ per cent.
Not only are these facts true, but an
other instance might be alleged of bust
ness prosperity in the Northwest
equally fOrcibie. Manufacturers for
some time OvercroWded with orders
have refused to take more, even at the
advance that has lately taken place in
nearly every merchantable commodity,
through fear of even greater advances.
And the business of the wholesale
houses keeps on growing.
The new lines of railroad which have
been opening up to the west and to the
southwest have developed territory
whose virgin richness has already made
itself felt in this city. Numerous cash
accounts which had no existence year
ago have sprung into being. Every indus
try is active. and all kinds of business are
prospecting.
Therefore let the croakers be silent,
1t is bad enough TO cry wolf when
there is occasion. 1t is little short of
criminal to give false alarm.

The Breweries Must Go.

Special to the Globe.
SIOUX CITY. To-. Dec. THE effect of
the recent supreme court decision in the
prohibition cases from Kansas was
shown in Sioux City to-day, when both
breweries locked their doors and closed
the manufacture of beer. These eStab-
lishments have held out so long as there
was ghost of show. and have fought
injunction proceedings for the past year
in the hope that the supreme court
would render decision in some way
favorable. But they yield now, and the
manufacture of beer is shut down in this
part of Iowa. The Seller brewery will
be moved 10 South Sioux City, just
across the river in Nebraska, while the
buildings of the Franz brewery of which
John ArensdOrf is foreman and part
owner, will probably be operated in
connection with the vinegar and pick
ling works.

NO HARD TIMES,

All this talk about the existence of
hard times is the veriest nOnSense-at
least so far as the Northwest is con-
cerned. Up here in this favored region
those who know anything about the
business situation are perfectly aware
that the assertion of hard times is the last
that could truthfuliy be made, no matter
what the chronic prophets OF evil may
say.
Times have seldom been better. Ger
tainly they have not been so good for
years. Among the wholesale men of
st. Paul they are even phenOmenally
good. For the month Of November, for
instance, collections have averaged 40
per cent greater than last year, and 20
per cent greater than the year before.
Money is plenty. 1t is now wing idle in
